Get a wedge, get PE right down with PEC (really, pempro will help a lot there) and see how it goes. I see many great pics from well tuned LX200Rs (a FR also would help, say the meade F6.3).An A07 and SBIG cam is a big jump, you would be better off with a DSLR 1st IMO, and an external guide scope and webby for guiding, at a fraction of the price.

Eventually, you would have to upgrade the mount if your serious about astrophotography (and PE ;-), its the single most important item in the whole rig. And after that it starts getting really, really expensive, dont even bother if you dont have $20k minimum in the bank ;-).

Cheers
Fred
